WP Crontrol Hours

Take control of your CRON jobs by restricting them to your website’s low traffic hours. From the admin screen, you can:

• Specify a daily window of when recurring CRON events should be triggered.
• Optionally limit events that run multiple times a day to only once a day.
• Optionally restrict events that run multiple times a day to only during your off-hours.
• Target specific schedules, including custom ones created by other plugins.
• Exclude specific CRON hooks from being affected

Benefits

Restricting your recurring CRON events to only run after hours helps with two (2) things:

1. Automatic updates for WordPress core, plugins, and themes are prevented from running during your highest-traffic times so users aren’t shown a maintenance page when it’s the most visible.
2. Less stress…
